HEALTH SAFETY HSE TRAINING IN PAKISTAN IN PAKISTAN

EDCONS Institute Of Business & Technology (Lahore) Environment, health and safety From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Environmental, health and safety (EHS) departments, also called SHE or HSE departments, are entities commonly found within companies that consider environmental protection, occupational health and safety at work as important as providing quality products, and which therefore have managers and departments responsible for these issues. EHS management has two general objectives: prevention of incidents or accidents that might result from abnormal operating conditions on the one hand and reduction of adverse effects that result from normal operating conditions on the other hand. For example, fire, explosion and release of harmful substances into the environment or the work area must be prevented. Also action must be taken to reduce a company’s environmental impact under normal operating conditions (like reducing the company’s carbon footprint) and to prevent workers from developing work related diseases. Regulatory requirements play an important role in both approaches and consequently, EHS managers must identify and understand relevant EHS regulations, the implications of which must be communicated to top management (the board of directors) so the company can implement suitable measures. Organisations based in the United States are subject to EHS regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations, particularly CFR , and 49. Still, EHS management is not limited to legal compliance and companies should be encouraged to do more than is required by law EDCONS Institute Of Business & Technology (Rawalpindi) 28-B, Sadiqabad Stop, Main Murree Road, Satellite Town, Rawalpindi- Pakistan Tel: Fax: Cell: www.edcons.edu.pk EDCONS Institute of Business & Technology (New Lalazar Campus) 32/D, Jhelum Road, Near Ayub Park, New Lalazar Rawalpindi.
